There were quite a few differences between the words ‘lost’ and ‘got rid of it.’ I just said, “I got rid of the Temple of the Wind.”

Upon arriving at the lord’s castle, I had to listen to the little lord’s scolding. Next to him, Kerenos stood with crossed arms.

“No, so you got rid of the Temple of the Wind...?”

“Yes. Well, it wasn’t intentional.”

Yes, it definitely wasn’t intentional. It was gone because of me but it was obviously Huera’s choice. Nevertheless, Edward’s face in front of me turned red. “What are you saying... no, how did you get rid of the temple that was safe even from a volcanic eruption? Now we can’t receive the divine wind. Don’t you know? Come and explain it properly!”

Edward grudgingly sat down in a fluffy chair nearby. I couldn’t help laughing when I saw that his feet couldn’t touch the ground because of his short height.

Kerenos’ gaze could be felt from the side. What was this look, dude? I shrugged and he shrugged with me. We sat together across from Edward. This was really annoying.

“What is that on your head? A weasel?” Edward asked me with curious eyes and I replied with a smile, “Yes, it is a weasel. I went to the Temple of the Wind to awaken this child.”

Kerenos looked surprised by my words.

“Huh? Then that weasel is...?”

“Yes, she is your sister. Her name is Punghee.”

“...My sister? No, why is it that name?”

I saw Kerenos frown at suddenly gaining a weasel sister. It was the same for Edward who was looking at me with strange eyes. I continued speaking, “I met the goddess of the wind there.”

“Huh...? Really?”

“H-Huera?”

They seemed to be flustered and couldn’t believe what I was saying right now. It was understandable. Originally, the gods in the Celestial Palace rarely appeared in the human world. Even if the gods wanted to descend to the Human World, there were many restrictions due to the taboo. The range of activities was limited to the temple. Thus, they didn’t appear unless there was something special.

This was probably why the two people were surprised. Well, Heaven was so vast that I probably wouldn’t have come down to the Human World. If there was already an apartment that was over 200 pyeong then why come over to a studio apartment that was less than 10 pyeong? [1]

I understood this part.

“It is Huera’s will that the temple was lost. She gave up the temple to give birth to this child. She drew on the power of the wind contained there. That’s why the shield protecting the temple was lost.”

“What is that weasel...?” Edward asked doubtfully and I smiled.

“The future of Windia.”

“What?”

“Take me to where Dimorte is. We will supply the divine wind.”

It was time to fulfill the goddess’ first request.

* * *

Everyone in the world had a haven to lean on. For some, it might be their families and for others, it was their friends. It might be money or a flower that bloomed on the side of the road. Windia would’ve been a peaceful haven. Now that peace was shattered. Many things had been destroyed.

I had to frown as I headed to Dimorte in the north. The inhabitants of this place bowed their heads to the lord but their expressions were very bad. The main square was filled with debris from already collapsed buildings and some people had blood-soaked bandages. It became more serious as we got closer to the center.

“If I had been a bit stronger, this wouldn’t have happened to Windia...” Edward sighed from where he was sitting in front of me in the carriage.

I sat across from him. Looking at his two clenched fists, he seemed quite upset.

“It isn’t your fault.”

"I know, but this never happened when my father was still alive. The residents probably don’t like me.”

“Don’t say that. You will do better in the future. You are still young. The residents know this.”

“Is that really the case?”

“It is clear.”

Just then, I could feel Punghee twisting on my head. She was probably awakened by the shaking carriage. “Puung...? Puung pung pung!”

“Keke. It tickles.”

The warm tongue of the white weasel tickled my cheeks. I didn’t know what magic Punghee used but she was floating in the air. Edward’s eyes shone like lanterns. “C-Can I touch her?”

“Of course.”

I pushed Punghee toward Edward and this time, Edward’s laughter burst out. The white weasel’s tongue tickled his cheeks like she was comforting him. “Uhahahat! You’re so cute. Jackson, can you give her to me?”

“...No.”

How much did I suffer to gain this child? In addition, this wasn’t necessarily the only reason. She had seen me as soon as she was born. Since she already imprinted on me as a parent, Punghee probably wouldn’t like it. My prediction ended up correct.

“Puung!” Punghee flew toward me angrily and hugged me as if she understood Edward’s words. The white weasel’s fur rubbed against my cheek.

Edward puffed up his cheeks. “...I’m angry.”

Edward pouted. Sure enough, children are tiring.

...Except for my grandchildren.

After a while, the carriage stopped. We hurried down and Kerenos, who had been on horseback, followed us. I could see a huge windmill in the distance. Fortunately, it seemed that Dimote hadn’t received any damage. Unfortunately, it was the exception.

“The Aiolia flower garden is ruined.” Edward sighed again. “The damage from the volcanic eruption is bigger than expected so no place is good. It is the representative flower of Windia but it is hard to encounter it now.”

The surrounding Aiolia had lost its vitality. Some were blackened by volcanic ash but most of them had withered. Still, there were some flowers that boasted a relentless vitality. It was a weed-like flower.

I told him, “There are three ways to see flowers. Do you know what it is?”

“Three ways...? Who knows? I don’t know.”

At Edward’s answer, I continued, “The first way is to break it, put it in a vase, and watch it. The second is to go and see the flowers.”

The moment I reached the windmill, I raised my head. The sails of the big windmill were slowly spinning. It was magnificent. Was this the place that scattered the divine wind? On the way here, I was able to hear the details about Dimorte in the carriage. Edward’s father, Earl Calia, was said to have obtained the divine wind from the temple every year and scattered it from the windmill. It was said that scattering the divine wind made this place refreshing.

I opened Punghee’s information window.

[Sacred Creature of the Wind - Lv. 1 Punghee.]

[Rating: Legend

Magic Power Consumption: None. Cooldown: None.

Duration: As you want.

A new soul born from Aiolos’ Egg, a sacred creature of the highest god Jupiter and comrade of Cooking King Alexus. She is gentle, pure, and playful, resembling the nature of the gentle goddess of the wind. In Weather Cooking, she is responsible for the ‘smell’ and her level increases every time food related to the wind is eaten.

-As her level increases, she will be able to use a larger variety of attacks.

-Wind of Revival (Active) (Myth)

Creates a wind that contains the power of ‘revival,’ one of the powers of Huera, goddess of the wind.

It has the power to restore the dying. It is still insufficient so only ‘plants’ can be saved.]

Wow, this was a complete gold spoon. From the moment she was born, she has a myth rated active skill. It was also the power of the goddess of the wind. I had guessed it but if she finished her growth, she would definitely surpass Aiolos. This was a certainty.

“Punghee.”

“Puung?”

“I need the revival wind.”

“Puuuung?”

The furry Punghee floated in the direction I pointed.

Edward’s voice could be heard from next to me, “What is the third and final one? Huh? What is it?”

I smiled at Edward’s figure holding his baggy pants.

“It is to plant seeds.”

[The sacred creature of the wind, 'Punghee,' is producing the ‘Wind of Revival’!]

The next moment, a golden wind blew from the sky. It was the same divine wind as was seen in the well. Edward stared up at the sky with an amazing expression. He was fascinated. Punghee moved around the sails of the windmill and along the way, divine wind was scattered in the air. All the people present let out bursts of admiration and joy.

“Ahh, the divine wind!”

“Thank you, Goddess!”

“Windia is revived!”

The wind of revival met the sails and were spread far and wide. The east, which had been devastated by the orcs, the south and central square that had been swept up in the effects of the volcanic eruption, and the west and north where the lord’s palace was located. There was no place where the wind didn’t reach. Then little by little, buds started to sprout. It was a precursor to the resurrection of Windia.

[The title ‘Hero of Windia’ will change.]

[The people and knights of Windia will sacrifice their lives to protect you.]

[Your name is widely known throughout Windia.]

[You have maximum goodwill with all NPCs in Windia.]

[20,000 fame has been acquired.]

......

“...I am now the Protector of Windia.”

Punghee came down to the ground and landed in the flower garden of new Aiolia. Perhaps it was because she was hungry from using a lot of strength, Punghee started to nibble on the flower petals with her small mouth. The cheers of many people reverberated across Windia and some were still shouting with joy. It might be a small wind but it was a great wind for others.

Ttiring~

[The sacred creature of the wind has eaten food related to the wind.]

[Punghee’s level has risen.]

I looked down at Windia where the flowers were shining with a smile.

...Now, let’s do the second favor.
